Once the deputy arrived on scene and officers approached the suspect vehicle, the suspect vehicle fled the scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The deputy pursued the suspect vehicle southbound on State Route 49. The suspect vehicle reached speeds greater than 100 MPH. As the deputy gained to approximately a half mile of the suspect vehicle, the suspect vehicle struck a southbound 2008 Ford pickup truck owned and operated by Matthew A. McDougall, age 45, of Antwerp. The suspect vehicle then veered off the roadway and struck a power pole and rolled, eventually coming to rest against a tree on State Route 49 south of State Route 111 in Harrison Township. McDougall was uninjured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The driver of the suspect vehicle, a 2008 Nissan Altima, was Anthony D. Greene, age 24, from Warren, Michigan. Hector A. Brujan, age 23, from Marion, Indiana was a passenger in Greene\u2019s vehicle. Greene and Brujan were taken to Parkview Hospital where they were treated and eventually released.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the investigation, suspected illegal narcotics were located in the Nissan, along with two loaded firearms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A warrant to arrest Greene was obtained by the Sheriff\u2019s Office for one count of Failure to Comply with order or signal of police officer, a Felony of the Third Degree, and Improperly Handling Firearms in a motor vehicle, a Felony of the Fourth Degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Greene was released from the hospital before the warrant could be executed by authorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This investigation is ongoing, and more charges could be presented to a Grand Jury after the case is reviewed by the Prosecuting Attorney.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Van Wert Post of the Highway Patrol investigated the crash, and deputies were assisted at the scene by the Antwerp Police Department, Payne Fire Department and Payne EMS. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
